+ # NotebookLM MCP Server
2
+
3
+ MCP server for [Google NotebookLM](https://notebooklm.google.com) — 32 tools for notebooks, sources, research, and studio content generation.
4
+
5
+ Built with the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) SDK for TypeScript.
6
+
7
+ ## Quick Start
8
+
9
+ ### 1. Install & Run
10
+
11
+ ```bash
12
+ npx -y @m4yk3ldev/notebooklm-mcp serve
13
+ ```
14
+
15
+ Or install globally:
16
+
17
+ ```bash
18
+ npm install -g @m4yk3ldev/notebooklm-mcp
19
+ notebooklm-mcp serve
20
+ ```
21
+
22
+ > **Note:** This package is published on [GitHub Packages](https://github.com/m4yk3ldev/notebooklm-mcp/packages). You need to configure your `.npmrc` first:
23
+ >
24
+ > ```
25
+ > @m4yk3ldev:registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com
26
+ > ```
27
+
28
+ ### 2. Authenticate
29
+
30
+ ```bash
31
+ npx @m4yk3ldev/notebooklm-mcp auth
32
+ ```
33
+
34
+ This opens NotebookLM in your default browser (where you're already logged into Google), then guides you to copy your session cookies from DevTools and paste them in the terminal.
35
+
36
+ Tokens are cached at `~/.notebooklm-mcp/auth.json`.
37
+
38
+ **Alternative: environment variables**
39
+
40
+ ```bash
41
+ export NOTEBOOKLM_COOKIES="SID=xxx; HSID=xxx; SSID=xxx; APISID=xxx; SAPISID=xxx"
42
+ ```
43
+
44
+ ### 3. Add to Your MCP Client
45
+
46
+ **Claude Code:**
47
+
48
+ ```json
49
+ {
50
+ "mcpServers": {
51
+ "notebooklm": {
52
+ "command": "npx",
53
+ "args": ["-y", "@m4yk3ldev/notebooklm-mcp", "serve"]
54
+ }
55
+ }
56
+ }
57
+ ```
58
+

126

127

129
+ notebooklm-mcp serve
130
+ notebooklm-mcp serve --query-timeout 60000
131
+
132
+ # Authenticate interactively
133
+ notebooklm-mcp auth
134
+
135
+ # Import cookies from a file
136
+ notebooklm-mcp auth --file cookies.txt
137
+
138
+ # Show cached token info
139
+ notebooklm-mcp auth --show-tokens
140
+ ```
141
+
142
+ ## How It Works
143
+
144
+ This server communicates with NotebookLM through Google's internal `batchexecute` RPC endpoint. It uses the same API that the NotebookLM web app uses in your browser.
145
+
146
+ Authentication is cookie-based — the server needs your Google session cookies to make requests on your behalf. Cookies are extracted once and cached locally. CSRF tokens are auto-refreshed when they expire.
147
+
148
+ ## Requirements
149
+
150
+ - Node.js >= 18
151
+ - A Google account with access to [NotebookLM](https://notebooklm.google.com)
152
+
153
+ ## Disclaimer
154
+
155
+ This project is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Google. It uses NotebookLM's internal web API, which is undocumented and may change without notice. Use at your own risk.
